The RHA Collection of fillers are an innovative line of dermal fillers designed to treat dynamic facial wrinkles and folds. These fillers are formulated with Resilient Hyaluronic Acid, a substance that closely resembles the natural hyaluronic acid in your skin. The Center for Dermatology and Aesthetic Medicine in Chicago, IL, offers the RHA Collection to patients seeking a more youthful appearance while maintaining natural facial expressions.

Types Of RHA Filler

RHA 1

Designed with flexibility and subtlety, RHA 1 is perfect for treating fine lines in delicate areas around the eyes and lips. Its smooth, gentle consistency adapts well to dynamic expressions, ensuring a natural appearance even in highly mobile facial regions.

RHA 2

RHA 2 offers a soft, versatile approach for moderate lines and wrinkles. Applied to areas like the nasolabial folds and marionette lines, this filler provides volume without being too firm, giving a gentle lift and improved smoothness while blending with natural facial movements.

RHA 3

RHA 3 delivers a more robust option for deeper folds and more pronounced wrinkles. Known for its staying power and natural look, it’s typically used for enhancing volume in areas with significant expression, like the cheeks and the deeper lines around the mouth.

RHA Redensity

RHA Redensity is specifically crafted to target moderate lines and add subtle volume in sensitive areas like the under-eye region. It integrates seamlessly into areas where the skin is thinner and more delicate, creating a smooth, refreshed look that helps with mild hollowness and under-eye shadows.

How Does RHA Work?

RHA can be injected into the skin using an ultrafine needle. Once in place, the product adds a small amount of volume to the skin to smooth wrinkles and folds. RHA also contains lidocaine within its formula, making the injection procedure comfortable. Like other hyaluronic acid fillers, RHA is not permanent. The body will safely and naturally metabolize the product over time, meaning that your results will gradually subside. This typically takes place over the course of about 12-15 months, after which you can receive maintenance injections.

RHA Results

A vast majority of RHA patients will see a noticeable improvement in their fine lines or wrinkles immediately after their injections. In addition to smoother skin, the product is designed to move naturally in dynamic areas while remaining firm, stable, and long-lasting. This means that you can enjoy your results for up to 15 months on average. During a consultation, a long-term treatment plan including routine maintenance injections can be discussed.

Side Effects of RHA

RHA injections involve few risks, but you may notice some minor side effects. Some slight swelling, redness, and discomfort can occur after RHA injections, and your injector may recommend a cold compress to help alleviate these side effects. The lidocaine within RHA will also cause temporary numbness or tingling in the treatment area. These side effects should subside within a few hours. After your injections, you may be asked to limit exercise, sun exposure, or cold and heat (such as use of a sauna) for up to 24 hours. You may also be instructed to avoid applying makeup for about 24 hours after your injections, as this could increase the risk of infection. In some cases, patients may also experience bruising, lumps or bumps, itching, or other less common side effects.

I have been going to see Dr. Kalimullah and Jennifer since 2017. They have been amazing and have provided the best service and keeping my face looking fresh. Their expertise is incredible and everything they have done for me has been immaculate – never any issues with the laser treatments or injections. They are also really mindful and conservative to ensure I look like me, but just the best version of me. Love this place. Only trust my face to them!

– Ariane

My experience at CDAM was very pleasant. Dr. Cavanaugh and his staff were warm and inviting. He explained the procedure thoroughly and was very gentle, making sure I was comfortable at all times. The medical assistant was nice and explained all the aftercare instructions in detail. My follow up appointment was seamless and efficient as well. I will be returning to CDAM in the future for more aesthetic procedures!
